I visited Dr. Soundappan for **anal fistula surgery*** Before coming here, I had many doubts and worries because I had previously undergone another surgery in my hip. I was concerned whether that might create difficulties during this treatment.
Dr. Soundappan patiently explained everything and guided me clearly about the procedure and recovery. His guidance gave me a lot of confidence to go ahead with the surgery.
The surgery and recovery were much easier than I expected. I experienced less pain and the recovery process was smooth with proper care and support.
I am very thankful to Dr. Soundappan and the team for their guidance and treatment. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing similar problems.

For past several years I had gallbladder stone issue but the size was small so I managed all those days but 5 months ago the pain went severe I had no option then the surgery ** * ******** *** *** **** ****************** ** *** *** I found out Dr.Soundappan sir . Nov 22 I went for a 1st consultation he was so humble , clearly explained what happens if we ignore surgery and also patiently answer our doubts. I decided to do surgery but my family was not okay with my opinion after argument and made them understand what will happen in future if we keep waiting for some other treatment, then they said Okay for my surgery.
After that I planned to do surgery on Jan 05 , I underwent a surgery. On that day itself I started to walk without help. After surgery the doctor and the nurse took a good care of me. Now I recovered without any complications.The surgery and the service in RoyalCare Hospital was so good.
A special Thanks to Dr.Soundappan sir for your care and concern on your patient's health . With god's grace I found out Dr.Soundappan sir for my treatment.

My father’s surgery was right hepatectomy. Dr. Soundappan and the team of doctors at Royalcare guided my father and my family throughout pre and post surgery. He was extremely professional. He was available on Sundays as well. He used to be meticulous through every step. He ensures a high standard of care.
When we first came to Royal Care Hospital, we were overwhelmed by my father’s Hepatocellular Carcinoma diagnosis and unsure whether a liver transplant was the right choice, especially given his other health issues. We didn’t know what the safest or most sensible surgical approach would be. Things changed after we met Dr. Soundappan, Dr. Ilango, and Dr. Hemamala (the best trio). He and his team were incredibly thorough and attentive to even the smallest details, but what helped us most was how clearly they explained everything—from how the surgery would be performed to what the recovery process would look like, all in language we could understand. The turning point came when we were shown the complete surgical plan. Seeing how carefully it had been prepared gave us confidence that we were in the right hands. Today, my father is steadily recovering, and he genuinely feels better thanks to the recovery steps the team implemented for him.

I was suffering from severe pain from Jul 2025 due to a colorectal medical condition. I met couple of surgeons overseas and couple in India before meeting Dr.Soundappan in Dec 2025.
Dr.Soundappan helped me understand the condition and clarified lot of questions and confusion I had about the surgical options. He gave us full confidence and I went through surgery with him and recovered from the medical condition. Thank you Doctor.
